RAX48 DHCP Broken

I just got the RAX48 AKA AX5200.  The DHCP Server keeps giving out same IP to different MAC's. Can someone please fix this. Firmware Version V1.0.2.72_2.0.45. Also the sorting in the attatched devices list page when clicking on headers is useless. Totally random.

    Note: I changed Ending IP Address to 192.168.1.199.  I often use somes static IP's above 200 so not sure if that had something to do with it. Regardless I got around it using Address Reservation for all my devices which seems to take care of the issue. I am assigning all of them above 200 away from the DHCP pool.
